Oh Melanie...great job! I'm so impressed! Mine are still sitting in the envelope they came in. I have plans for them...I love your red and the wonky setting!

I love it! It looks great. My blocks are still in the cupboard waiting for me to work on them. Way to go!

To be honest with you, my blue and white ones are still in the envelope they came in, lol!

I want to do something fun with them, but I haven't had any inspiration yet, so they'll stay where they are until I get a flashy idea :P

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I love the wonky look too. The next time I do it, I'll arrrange for them to look even more crooked, and haphazard.

You're right, I always use poly batting.
My wallet can't afford the cotton batting, but I have thought of using fleece if I can get it cheap.

My baby will have a choice of quilts for pretty much every day of the week by the time he/she gets here, lol!

P.S. I love the baby time line on your postings, it's like all of the board is a part of your family. (Weird, I know)

ooooh- can we do a mare stare and bet on the baby's arrival?

It's a beautiful quilt Melanie! I really love the way you set the blocks. I might "steal" your idea for the blocks I get in the Blue & Yellow block swap, if you don't mind!
